Abstract: A louvered separator for separating water from an air flow is provided which includes a number of vertical slat structures having a constant profile, horizontally spaced from each other so as to form horizontally tortuous separating channels in the spaces between the slats. The slat structures include water-collecting troughs and two separate slats having differing constant profiles; in the air flow direction a foremost front slat and a following back slat. The front slat includes, in the flow direction, a leading edge, a middle area and a trailing edge, and the back slat includes, in the flow direction, a leading edge, a middle area and a trailing edge. The water-collecting trough is limited to the area of the trailing edge of the back slat, so that the front slat entirely, and the back slat for more than a half of its length from the leading edge towards the trailing edge, form only even surfaces to guide the flow.

Abstract: The invention relates to a two-stage moisture separator for installation at the upper end of a vertical air intake channel (1). The moisture separator comprises a body frame (2) having a square-shaped horizontal cross section, which downwardly smoothly transforms to correspond to the shape of the upper end of the air intake channel (1), so as to be connected thereto in a sealed manner. Each of the sides of the square is provided with a vertically-slatted second separating louver (3), as seen in the direction of air flow, supported to the upper edge of the side. Air channels (4) having an enlarging cross section of flow curve outwardly and downwardly relative to the second separating louvers, and at the ends of the air channels there are, as seen in the direction of air flow, first substantially vertically-slatted separating louvers (5), and suction channels (6) extending downwardly from the first separating louvers.

The louvered separator comprises a number of vertical slat structures having a constant profile, horizontally spaced from each other so as to form horizontally tortuous separating channels (1) in the spaces between the slats. The slat structures are provided with water-collecting troughs (2,3).

The front slat comprises, in the flow direction, a leading edge (7), a middle area (8) and a trailing edge (9), and the back slat comprises, in the flow direction, a leading edge (10), a middle area (11) and a trailing edge (12).
